Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms
This book provides a broad overview of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms, focusing on the most important developments in the technologies used to diagnose, classify and treat them. After a historical and epidemiological overview, the opening chapters examine the various diagnostic approaches (radiology, nuclear medicine, endocrinology, cytology and immunohistochemistry) and discuss the WHO classification. The functioning and nonfunctioning tumor types are then fully discussed, covering epidemiology, diagnosis, morphology and prognosis of each entity. Careful consideration is given to the molecular features that have contributed in understanding the pathogenesis of such neoplasms and may have potential implications for the diagnostic and therapeutic pathways. The final chapters consider the surgical and medical approaches to therapy, providing a practical and analytical overview of the available options. The book is written by a multidisciplinary team of worldwide-recognized experts and is addressed to radiologists, nuclear medicine physicians, endocrinologists, pathologists, surgeons and oncologists.
The Diabetic Pancreas
Since the publication of the first edition of The Diabetic Pancreas in 1977, much progress has been made in various areas of diabetes research. While only a rela tively short while ago diabetes was considered a single disease, in more recent years it has become apparent that it is a heterogeneous group of disorders, all of which are characterized by a decreased tolerance of carbohydrates and most of which have a genetic basis, although the genetic types vary. In more recent years, an International Work Group sponsored by the National Diabetes Data Group of the NIH proposed a now generally accepted classification, according to which the insulin-dependent ketosis-prone diabetes, formerly and i...
The Spectrum of Neuroendocrine Neoplasia
Neuroendocrine neoplasms comprise a large family of proliferative lesions that involve almost every part of the body. Our understanding of their cells of origin as well as the pathology, pathophysiology and genetics of these neoplasms has made tremendous advances in the last few decades. While they are often discussed as separate entities in textbooks of gastroenteropancreatic pathology and pulmonary pathology, their scope is much broader. The book conveys the similarities and differences of these fascinating tumors that may be found from the hypothalamus and pituitary to the rectum, and in soft tissue as well as in many organs. Written by experts in the field, the authors emphasize their st...
Molecular Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment of CNS Tumors
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact.
Endocrine Pathology
A comprehensive review of recent molecular discoveries that can clarify the pathophysiology of endocrine disease processes and contribute to the diagnostic aspects of endocrine pathology. Surgeons, medical oncologists, and radiation therapists discuss the treatment of endocrine disorders, especially tumors, with emphasis on differential diagnosis and on broadening the perspective that the endocrine pathologist must have in making specific tissue diagnoses. Of interest to practicing pathologists, pathology residents, endocrinologists, endocrinologists in training, veterinarians, and interested researchers.
Endocrine Pathology of the Gut and Pancreas
This important new book presents critical information on the clinical and morphological aspects of various endocrinological disorders of the gut and pancreas. Topics include a historical perspective and broad overview of the neuroendocrine component of the gut; hyperplastic proliferations of gastrointestinal endocrine cells; pancreatic endocrine cells and their non-neoplastic proliferations; tumors and lesions; and endocrine differentiation in nonendocrine tumors. The book stresses clinical and pathological aspects of these topics, as well as the pathogenesis, clinicopathological correlations, and diagnostic approaches. Gastroenterologists, pathologists, internists, surgeons, endocrinologists and others interested in endocrinological disorders of the gut and pancreas will discover that this book will be a welcome addition to your reference library.
Toxines et cancer
De tout temps, l'homme a eu conscience de l'intérêt thérapeutique des toxines. Certaines toxines végétales depuis longtemps utilisées figurent encore dans la pharmacopée actuelle. Viennent s'y ajouter depuis peu des toxines microbiennes. Cependant le maniement des toxines natives ou à peine modifiées reste délicat tant est faible la marge entre les effets toxiques et l'efficacité thérapeutique. Comment, dans une perspective médicale, canaliser la puissance d'action et l'efficacité d'une toxine ? Connaître sa structure, comprendre son mécanisme d'action n'est pas suffisant : il faut aussi identifier sa cible privilégiée, autrement dit un récepteur cellulaire, faute de quoi ...
